The Academy Is Tickets

I went to their 10 year anniversary tour of this album and the major thing that improved over the past decade is their sound. When they first came out, amazing but that night all those years ago made me never want to see them again, but a friend said they'd seen them recently and they were better - so I went. I was glad I did because this album is one of my all time favorites, and yes! They sounded way better for the 20th than they did for the 10th anniversary. I just wish they had played the album in full without the detours, and had saved those for the encore. Really, the only hiccup for me because you cannot beat being a 5 minute drive from the venue, easy parking, easy pickup for ride share riders, and all around pleasant venue.

I AM SO EXCITED THAT I GOT TO SEE THE ACADEMY IS... FOR THEIR 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY TOUR! I'VE LOVED THIS BAND SINCE THEY FIRST STARTED AND THEIR FIRST ALBUM HAS A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART. IT WAS A GREAT SHOW BECKETT REALLY KNOWS HOW TO GET THE CROWD AMPED UP. WE ALL HAD A FANTASTIC TIME! HOPE THEY DO ANOTHER ANNIVERSARY TOUR IN THE FUTURE!!

This was the best show I have ever been to. 4th time seeing TAI... and I have seen William Beckett solo 4 times. This beat it all. The emotion that filled the room, the bass from the speakers, his voice filling you up. I will never forget this night

The opening band was great! The Academy Is sounds great live and I hope this is not the last time in Atlanta...this night was one to remember!

The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was the entire set was too short. They played Almost Here in its entirety superbly. Afterwards they played a half dozens songs and called it a night (About A Girl, Big Mess, LAX, etc). However the entire show felt a little short. With that said, it was worth every penny and HIGHLY recommend this show. Best concert I've been to in a while. If tix are available, you need to go.

I was very excited to see The Academy Is... reunion show and they did not disappoint! They still got it after all these years. William's vocal acrobatics were unbelievable and all the other band members were on point. Even when William started singing the wrong part of "Big Mess" the crowd still went crazy. I know I did and I loved them all the more for it. Can't have an exciting show without a little bit of the unexpected. TAI still knows how to play a crowd. And don't get me started on when Beckett went down to the audience! I was thisclose. TAI loves their fans and they will always be my favorite band to see live.

This was my 1st "The Academy Is" concert, I went a long long long time ago though. Bill's vocals were AMAZING (even though he was fighting a bad cold that night I think). I really enjoyed the show! I sadly didn't get to see "This Providence" (one of the opening acts) cause my friend and I were late, but I did get to see Evan Taubenfeld (the other opener) and he was so AWESOME! I got to meet him after the show, sweetest guy I've ever met! (though I didn't get to see Bill afterwards cause we left early for some odd reason)...All in all the show was a landmark event for me! :)

Completely blindsided that the venue was a teen center. The 2nd opening band, Mechanical Kids, was leagues better than The Academy Is. Left after three TAI songs.

Mayday Parade was excellent along with the rest of the bands other than Set Your Goals who sucked royally.

I didn't know of the first 3 acts well, but You Me At Six, the Secret Handshake, and Set Your Goals were really good and I intend to listen to them more often now and keep up with them. The Academy Is was AMAZING and I'd love to see them again. Mayday Parade was also AMAZING. All the artist had a lot of energy especially The Academy Is and Mayday Parade and I'm really happy I bought tickets to this show!
